A group of vaping Brits were escorted off a flight by the police after being rumbled by fuming cabin crew.
Three women and one man were greeted by an officer after ignoring a number of warnings during their trip home.
The foursome continued to use their vapes on an easyJet plane during a five-hour journey back to the UK.

Fellow passenger Annalise Galstaun caught the moment the group were rumbled by the police after they landed.
“Grown adults who can’t wait to smoke their strawberry flavoured crap,” the 31-year-old, from Birmingham, told Need To Know.
“They were warned a few times by easyJet staff but continued to vape on the sly throughout the 5 hour journey hiding the vape behind their legs on the seat.
“Staff had seen them numerous times and I think someone close complained too.”
The shocking behaviour took place on a flight back from Larnaca, Cyprus, to Birmingham Airport on 16 Sep.
The rest of the passengers were held up for around 25 minutes as the police boarded the plane.
Annalise alongside others was left very annoyed with the group’s etiquette causing a big delay.
She said: “I felt annoyed as we were delayed around 20/25 mins grounded on the floor waiting for them to be escorted.
“There were children onboard crying, it’s a long journey.”
A spokesperson for easyJet said: “Flight EZY6610 from Larnaca to Birmingham on 16 September was met by police on arrival due to a group of passengers behaving disruptively onboard.
“Our cabin crew are trained to assess all situations and to act quickly and appropriately to ensure that the safety of the flight and other customers is not compromised at any time.
“We take these incidents seriously and do not tolerate disruptive behaviour onboard.
“The safety and wellbeing of our customers and crew is always easyJet’s highest priority.”
A spokesperson for West Midlands police said: “We received a complaint of a disruptive passenger and we supported staff in asking someone to leave the plane.”
